Minutes 'til the World Lyrics

so I see your eyes say " I knew you were right"
you can't say we let this happen unwarned
under a night blue canvas painted sky
there's life's clock that moves it's hands
with every second of endless surprise
with every second there's a promise broken
hurt filled hearts are ripped wide open
only minutes 'til the world falls through your hands

next rainy days never silence the pain
to hear your closest friend say
that her life will never be the same
unfortunately true this is just the way we planned
to never feel and now we do
and now the clock on the wall in your hospital room ticks
there's minutes 'til the world falls through your hands

this is our chance
to be bright, will we shine?
in this pain phase
must you play denial?
when you feel small
you're not at all

how much it hurts to know you're by yourself somewhere
and that today's not just your life, but one given you to raise
a heaven sent blessing in disguise, your child and his mistake
and with your newborn baby boy comes angry love, tearful joy
and that clock with minutes 'til the world falls through his hands

what did you say when he threw your love away?
when he told you he was leaving
heading straight for somewhere unknown
what did you say when he told you he means well?
you know that he cares, but inside you feel it's less
you give away every single thing you had
